Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/10] Torture-test updates for v5.1

Hello!

This series contains torture-test updates:

1.	Record grace periods in forward-progress histogram.

2.	Explain and simplify odd "for" loop in mkinitrd.sh.

3.	Add grace period after CPU offline.

4.	Stop abusing IS_ENABLED().

5-9.	Fixes to nolibc, plus move it to somewhere less RCU-centric,
	courtesy of Willy Tarreau, who also stepped up to be maintainer.

10.	Remove section MODULE PARAMETERS from torture.txt in favor of
	the existing documentation in kernel-parameters.txt, courtesy
	of Junchang Wang.

							Thanx, Paul
